Your mileage may vary depending on how many dramas of this type you've watched. Personally, I think it's overrated af.

The only interesting thing in this drama is gender bender side character Bu Shu Lin, lol. Everything else not worth the time.

It's good, you can watch it. It got scorbombed for unjust reasons at release.

Why are you not having any common sense to not spew bile until he's actually convicted with something? Some people just can't help themselves but to gloat over others' misfortune.

The only people who are despicable here are the rabid fans turned haters, who enjoy steaming in their own bile and spreading it all over the place. Most of the scandals you see about actors' private lives these days are generated by water armies, AI and criminal groups selling hate on the internet at the highest bidder (one was even captured recently). How about waiting for an actual sentence for once before starting throwing sh*it? Or next thing you know there's another suicide victim bullied by social media crazies.

Latest from wiki:
"In May 2026, the Seoul Gangnam Police Station announced that it had determined evidence against Kim Soo-hyun to have been falsified using a combination of image editing and artificial intelligence, which included an AI-generated voice clone of the late actress Kim Sae-ron. The police initially announced that they were seeking an arrest warrant for Kim Se-ui [ko] of Hover Lab for fabricating and distributing the edited materials to generate attention for his YouTube channel. On May 26, 2026, the Seoul Central District Court officially granted the arrest warrant, and Kim Se-ui was detained due to concerns that he might flee or destroy evidence. Furthermore, investigative authorities booked Bu Ji-seok—the attorney representing Kim Sae-ron's family who had previously held a joint press conference with Hover Lab—as a suspected accomplice."

Same, I watched 2 episodes, struggled with 2 more and decided not worth my time. Nothing special here for me.

Most likely because of the actors' real age gap. And as soon as one of them is nearing 50 it's immediately ick for many people.
Personally I don't give af, the actor doesn't even look too old because of all the filters plastered on him. But I think if they gonna insert it here, it's gonna be very mild.

Legend of Zang Hai.

Yea, the "Lizard" guy, he's hilarious.

Is Agent Kim that good? I watched 2 episodes and didn't find anything special there. Does it get better?

Agreed about the cast, I like the scummy grandpa especially. Knew he's gonna be utilized, lol.

Definitely, but not as funny so far.

You should check official CN platforms' statements about revenue and critical acclaim. It's one of the top grossing dramas on Youku platform (the one who commissioned it), it was a commercial hit. And it had a ton of commercial revenue from national CCTV broadcasting. The platform recently announced several season 2 dramas and it was amongst them for these reasons.

As for scores, nobody gives af about MDL or other western aggregators, and it has too small of a sample anyway, with very skewed bias. Wanna look for something more coherent, go look it up on Douban or smth. This drama has better score there than most of the overrated ones on MDL.
You really should give up on MDL scores, anyone who's been here long enough knows there's too much overhyped bs here. If you only watch dramas based on MDL rating, you may miss lots of great ones.

It did really well, both commercially and critically. Don’t let biased MDL scores fool you, nobody really gives af about them.

That’t not how it happened. There’s no spirit transmigration here, it’s just part of her hallucinations. You gotta pay more attention to the plot.

Ehm, FL actress is 17. We're not getting any kissing scenes here, right? 👀

You can fast forward to the Lishan mountain arc that starts in episode 32, it's the highlight of this drama. Middle is rather draggy.

I find it really strange, your opinion. UJ had way tighter, well thought out plot, with very clear themes and arcs, and better, more meaningful dialogues overall. And no screentime wasted on boring side characters' baffling "dead end" stories, there were lots of these in TFJ. And of all things, FL's character there was terrific, very hard disagree. But whatever, to each their own, I guess. Maybe some other things as well, but no point arguing here.
Personally, I think BL did great in both, some of her finest work in these no-nonsense, mature dramas.

I've already checked, there was like one lyrics bgm track that sounded similar, but the rest were distinct. I hope they get released later.
